bobbyg123,
You received lots of useful information from others. Here is my addition.
In inclement weather, do your tailgate parties become an indoor activity with many other people? I will assume outdoors with others, indoors with only who you bring along. I also assume a full size awning would be very useful on hot sunny days and rainy days.
Given "mobility" is a mentioned factor, you primarily travel with your 2 young sons, and you imply you are fairly nimble, it seems the right motor home would be...
- a rear corner double or queen bed in back for you will provide lots of outside storage for all your tailgate stuff
- a large front cab-over bed for your sons would be well utilized
- decent capacities for fresh and waste water to share your toilet with other sports fans
- as short as you can find, less than 25 feet long would be better yet
We own a Ford E350 rig that fits the description with exception to the cab-over bed...our has a B+ cap. It measures 23'-8" end-to-end with a standard 158" wheel base. At 93" wide, it is more narrow than a typical motor home. When not towing our Jeep, it is very easy to get around in tight places. My confidence driving it solo is very high. I do feel if it was longer, I would be less confident. Each foot longer would reduce confidence less and less. A 31 foot rig driven solo in a sports arena parking lot would seem hair-raising.
If your needs are basic, I vote for less than 25 feet.
